Band Of The Day #16 - JOHNNY FOREIGNER "The End And Everything After"

Taken from their 10/10-rated Arcs Across The City mini-album (review), ‘The End And Everything After’ is a brilliant introduction to one of the UK’s most promising new rock acts, Johnny Foreigner.
 
With work on their debut album proper recently wrapped up in New York with producer Machine (whose previous credits include Fall Out Boy and Lamb of God), the Birmingham trio’s mix of Q And Not U and Cap’N Jazz wobble-punk  and the immediacy of early Blur and Ash, along with some superbly unhinged girl/boy vocal histrionics, looks certain to woo the ears of Britain’s more discerning indie-rockers. The band hit the road in February alongside fellow tips for 2008, Los Campesinos!, so be sure to catch them live at your earliest convenience.
 
Ahead of their tour proper, Johnny Foreigner call in at DiS’s own DiScover Club on January 26. The free-entry show takes place at London’s Notting Hill Arts Club – check more details here. Look out for a DiScover interview with the band next week, too.
